DIY: Cutting Rear Springmount aka "the springmount mod"
#151
word of advice guys...never put your stock springs back on and leave your spring mounts cut. Your tires will be eaten up. My falken 452s that only have 3000 miles are now completely bald. I didn't have time to order the new spring mounts and now I have to get new tires.
Just thought I would add this to the thread, just in case there's other dumbasses like me.

I am running stock springs and cut spring mounts. My tires aren't eaten up.
You sound like you have an alignment issue.

+1 I had my stocks put back on with 350Z S Techs, 20/25mm spacers, & .5" cut on the springmounts with out any issues at all. Sounds to me like you cut the springmounts and did not get an alignment to make up for the drop.

That would be an alignment problem, not the springmount being cut.
